    Hi there, my Texas F-chat friends. In small news from the southwest side of Dallas, I'm GRADUATING!!! WAHOO! :D

    ....and, yes....there is going to be a party. Exactly 3 weeks from today, May 20th, from 12 p.m. - 4 p.m., there will be an open house at my house. Everyone here is invited. No requirements. Just stop by, say hi, eat some food...that kind of thing.

    Recap:

    What: Graduation Party!
    When: May 20th (Saturday)
    Time: 12 p.m. - 4 p.m.
    Where: My house (PM me for address and/or directions)
    Style: Open house...come and go as you please.

    It would be helpful for the planners and food/beverage providers of this event to have a head-count, so RSVP is preferred. However, don't let that stop you from coming! If you think you can't make it, but at the last minute can, PLEASE stop by. Everyone is welcome.

    And, so everyone knows the pertinent information regarding the graduation, I am graduating from Northwood University with a Bachelors in Business Admnistration in Automotive Marketing/Management. I have already earned my Associates degree in Entertainment & Sports Promotions. So....there we have it. You have been officially invited. :)

    Hahaha...definitely hard work. I should be graduating with a 3.66 GPA (on a 4 point scale) along with having worked 30-40 hours per week. But, thank you. :)

    I may be down in Houston soon (as in, possibility of a job down there), so perhaps we can celebrate at that time? That is, if everything works out as planned. Regardless, thank you....and have a great weekend.

    Well...in the future, yes. Right now, if you have a Mercedes that needs servicing....I can help you out there. Of course, I'll keep you posted as to changes. Thank you, John. Have a great weekend, bud.

    Nice work, Josh!

    How was/is the job search. I know you were looking about 7-8 weeks ago. Has anything come up?

    Well, if nothing changes, I'll be staying with the same company I've been working for for the past 2 years. They've moved me up slightly in the past couple of weeks. However, I do still have at least 1 iron in the fire, so we'll see how that turns out. Other than that, I'm no longer actively looking. Once I get it all figured out, I'll make it "official".

    Thank you for checking up on me, though. I do appreciate it.

    As of two weeks ago, I'm unofficially a service advisor trainee for a local Merc dealer. It will be official once I graduate. So, I'm learning how to write-up cars, deal with techs, and make sure that the client's cars get fixed.

    Congratulations, Josh! Lots of years of school are almost over! Now you'll be able to work full-time and best of all: No Homework!!!

    Well, maybe until you have to study for a new job. But sounds like you're getting on-the-job training, so: No Homework!!!

    Well done. Good grade average, too!

    GOOD! Glad to have you. As it gets closer, I'll get you directions/address.


    Thank you. :) I'm not totally done. I am planning on going for my Master's Degree. But that will be in a couple of years. A lot of MBA programs like their students to have real-world experience.

    But yes, no homework for now. :D

    Good job man. That's a great feat to have worked that much and kept a good gpa. I never studied and am paying the price for it now. Oh well I had fun, so I'll make more money just a little later now.

    Thank you, Yoshi. Likewise, I hope you and your family are doing well. I haven't heard much from you. Maybe we'll have to hit Speedzone again sometime. :D
